Stephan Ewen commented on FLINK-3417:
-------------------------------------
We can omit the factory for now, but it should still not be a problem. People can add RocksDB
to the core class path by simply dropping the jar into the lib folder...
> Add RocksDB StateBackendFactory and integrate with Flink Config
> ---------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: FLINK-3417
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3417
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Streaming
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Aljoscha Krettek
> Priority: Blocker
>
> Currently, only memory and file backends can be configured as default backends in {{flink-conf.yaml}}.
To change that we need to add a StateBackendFactory.
> Also, there cannot be a short name for this such as how you can now specify "jobmanager"
or "filesystem" in the config because RocksDB is not in the standard dist.
